MAN WAS AGITATED AFTER HIS BAG WAS REMOVED: PRIEST
The incident occurred after the 9.30am Mass when the man began shouting loudly inside the church and “creating a ruckus”, Father Chan recounted.
“I had to go in and intervene and ask him to follow me out of the church,” he said.
Someone had removed the man’s backpack from the church, and that had agitated him, the priest said.
“He was very angry at that and demanded to have his bag back.”
Shortly after the bag was returned, the man punched him.
A volunteer from the church’s security team quickly restrained the attacker and contacted the police.
